Another Hawking Atheodicy

Another Hawking fail, after the disaster of his latest book:

" 'I regard the brain as a computer which will stop working when its components fail. There is no heaven or afterlife for broken down computers; that is a fairy story for people afraid of the dark.'

Hawking's stance on religion has hardened significantly in the nearly quarter century since the publication of his seminal work on the cosmos.

In "A Brief History of Time" he suggested that the idea of a divine being was not necessarily incompatible with a scientific understanding of the Universe.

But in his 2010 book "The Grand Design" he said a deity no longer has any place in theories on the creation of the universe in the light of a series of developments in physics.

Hawking has floated his very own fantasy in his book, The Grand Design, where he piles logical errors on logical errors and compounds that with raw faith in equations that balance positive infinities with negative infinities. This, he claims, proves that "the existence of the law of gravity" shows that universes just happen.

Even granting credence to his flawed logic yields the further question: whence the law of gravity? Hawking has become unstable in his philosophical forays, which he embellishes with faux science, a truly sad affair. He no longer provides or needs proof for his statements, which he proclaims with an false air of scientific rigor, having declared that philosophy is dead. He seems no longer able to distinguish between the two, nor able to filter out the bad logic.
